Categories

Cleanliness
7.8
Generally reported as clean in many reviews, but several comments note 'not very very clean' and multiple mentions of many cats in public areas which lowered perceived cleanliness.
Service
9.4
Consistently praised across reviews — friendly, attentive and helpful staff; many guests called staff 'the friendliest' and noted professional, welcoming service.
Location
9
Frequently highlighted as a strong point: central, convenient for moving around Kampala and beautiful surroundings, though a few rooms face the street and can be noisy.
Room Quality
8.6
Rooms described as spacious and comfortable with good balconies and views; some negatives like stiff pillows, older TVs and occasional cleanliness/noise issues.
Amenities
8.8
Strong amenities noted (two restaurants, pool, spa, buffet breakfast); limited children's activities and intermittent internet in rooms reduced this slightly.
Value for Money
8.7
Not widely discussed in reviews; set to the target overall rating in absence of consistent commentary.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast and on-site restaurants receive frequent praise for quality, variety and portions, though isolated comments suggest breakfast could be improved or room service charging questioned.
Overall Experience
8.3
Many guests report an excellent, peaceful and pleasurable stay and would return; however issues like noise for some rooms, intermittent internet, cats and pillow comfort slightly temper the overall score.

Pros:

I have tried many Hotels in Kampala in the same price range and this Hotel beats them all. From the staff to the Room itself. I have become a regular guest.
+ Clean Rooms
+Full Intercontinental Breakfast
+Very friendly Staff
+ Quiet stay
+ Central Location

Cons:

-Unfortunatly no bathtubs in the rooms, but that is just my personal preference
- Quite Expensive pricing per Day and no seasonal Price droppings, but that's unfortunately the same in all the other Hotels in Kampala

Amazing service but leaking bathroom
Pros:

Amazing restaurant and all other services nearby like massage, souvenir shop, haircut, tour and more. The hotel located right inside of the garden like place and the ambience is quite good.

Cons:

However, the facility inside is not good. My bathroom keeps leaking water out whenever I took shower and I have to be super careful but still. Leaking all the time.

Very good two-week stay
Pros:

We stayed at Fairway Boutique Hotel & Spa for 14 nights as a couple on holiday. Overall, we had a very good experience.

The staff were friendly, professional and attentive, and the service was consistently good throughout our stay. We also felt that the hotel lived up well to its stated values, particularly regarding hospitality, respect and personal service.

A comfortable and reliable choice for a longer stay in Kampala.
